WORRIED ABOUT THIS TROPICAL WEATHER
Permalink  

...here in down town Townsville.

I use a sleeping bag unzipped like a doona and only have the bottom half of me under it but lately now the temps are around 14+ over night I find I wake up in the morning with it up around my neck. What I am worried about is next I will be bending bananas.

Does this mean I am turning into a Townsvillian? I have been here for about 10 weeks now.

 I'm more concerned about the twins what are they wearing at night? biggrin

this part of your text needs to be edited 'over night I find I wake up in the morning with it up'   oh sorry I just read the rest on the next line. disbeliefdisbelief

Shut the front gate!!

That's the 'crock billed duck' Ken. A vary rare duck and only found in tropical climates. Wow, what a find.

I reckon if I came across one of those I would find it in my daughters oven and then to save wasting it, it would have to be found on my plate.
